Description by Brian Robins [-]
The magnificent Sinfonia concertante for violin, viola, and orchestra in E flat major, K. 364, is Mozart's only surviving complete work of this type, a genre that incorporates elements of both the symphony and concerto. Generally scored for two or more solo instruments and orchestra, the sinfonia concertante was particularly popular in Paris in the eighteenth century. It was there, in fact, that Mozart composed such a work in 1778 for four outstanding wind soloists from the Mannheim orchestra who were also then in the French capital; that work, however, is now known only in a spurious nineteenthth century edition.
During this period Mozart also began two other works in the sinfonia concertante genre, one for violin and piano in D major (1778), and another for violin, viola and cello in A major, K. 320e (ca. 1779-1780), neither of which progressed beyond the first 130 or so measures before the composer set it aside. The present work may be a replacement for the aborted D major work. It was composed in Salzburg during the summer or fall of 1779, about the same time as that work. In both works, Mozart calls for a higher tuning than is usual for the viola; his purpose in so doing was undoubtedly to give the instrument a brighter sound to avoid being overshadowed by its more penetrating violin companion.
The soloists for whom the Sinfonia concertante was composed are not known, but they may have been Antonio Brunetti, the leader of the Salzburg court orchestra, and the violinist Joseph Hafender. The work is in three movements: Allegro maestoso, Andante and Rondo. The orchestra includes two oboes, two horns, an optional pair of bassoons, and strings. The work is notable for its warm expansiveness; the Andante is particularly delectable with its ravishing dialogue between the two soloists. The scoring is unusually full and rich; Mozart's frequent divisi writing for the violas produces textures that presage the sumptuous writing in Idomeneo, ré di Creta (1781), the opera seria composed for Munich less than a year later. - เพลง
The balance of the parts, the dialogues, the atmospheres, the melodies, the phrasing...this is for sure one of his masterpieces.
Well-said, Maestro......BRAVO from Acapulco!
You mean, one of your masterpieces?
@@amadc675 -- I suspect an Imposture here. Probably some passed-over musicologist denied tenure at Staatliche Hochschule Für Musik.....
Again Wolfie leaving his accounts logged-in at those Viennese cafes! Same happened yesterday to the Leipzig's Kantor Rabbit YT account!
one of his 626 masterpieces
The 2nd movement is pretty much at the peak of human creation, it's perfect in just about every way. Even beyond the scope of music, it's one of the greatest and most wonderful things ever made.
I am literally pissed we were robbed of like 30-40 more years of music from the God of music himself. Such a crying damn shame of all the music he could’ve written
23:41 the coda is so impossibly beautiful
If I could take only one Mozart work to a desert island, this would be a strong contender.
It is such a crucial piece it made the Amadeus cut
10:39 - 10:52 Magnificent writing for the strings
All of Mozart’s music is the fountain of the soul
For me this is his best work. There isn’t anything which compares in qualitative consistency to this.
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieses perfekt komponierten Doppelkonzerts mit seidigen doch gut phrasierten Tönen beider technisch perfekten Soloinstrumente sowie gut harmonisierten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt melodisch. Im Kontrast klingt der dritte Satz echt lebhaft und auch begeisternd. Der intelligente und geniale Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Orchester in verschiedenen Tempi und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
I played this in orchestra less than a week ago! Love the piece.
The presto movement is a favorite of my local classical radio station. I wish they played the whole work more often; I had forgotten how lovely the first two movements are!
I am here in Jundiaí/SP,listening this masterpiece
Love this recording, the best one out there and what a piece! Top 5 Mozart
He soars from Beauty to Beauty unfolding such seraphic visions it's almost unbearable to our mundane hearts.
Это шедевр!
Thank you! Great!
Isso é maravilhoso.
Mozart da beleza ao mundo tão escuro.
Dont know why, I absolutely love the Presto 3rd movement.
Mozart was a good !
So much greater than any sinfonia concertante that Bologne composed.
💥
*S C O R D A T U R A*
0:50 reminds me of a *not* Mozart Symphony in the same key, specifically with its first movement.
Can someone please explain why the viola solo part is writen transposed in D?
Please read the info under the video.
18:50 piano concerto no 9
as a cellist, i realized that the scordatura viola part is literally bass clef but an octave up😂
18:24 (personal note)
Why is the solo viola part had to be written in D major?
Read info under the video please.
The violist is supposed to tune his instrument up by 1/2 tone, thus increasing its brilliance.
23:41
Did Mozart write the cadenza?
Yes.
The soloists are nonpareil and of course this is Mozart's finest string concerto bar none. Just wish the "meaty" divisi viola parts in the ripieno were more prominent---they often provide counterpoint that can easily be missed, and they give a distinctive color to the work.
This is a recording from 1964 digitized from Vinyl. I am amazed how clear it is and how much the engineers managed to pick up.
Is pelliccia using scordatura in this recording?
more one proof that c minor is the best key!
Without order and culture in our society this music cannot exist. It cannot be performed, let alone enjoyed properly. Woe to our disastrous world.
Other way round. In playing this and other masterpieces, we bring order and culture into the world. It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
@bonnacon; Rightly spoken! "Don't curse the darkness, light a candle!" Viva Mozart!
There's nothing to say only but the word "amazing and beautiful"
Just devine
Is er ooit enige evidentie gevonden dat al die grote, zeer productieve componisten, met amanuenses werkten?
